the Thoreau Log.
27 November 1854. Nantucket, Mass.

Andrew Whitney writes to Thoreau in reply to his letter of 25 November:

Dear Sir

  Your favor of 25th is at hand this evening. We cannot have you between the 4 & 15th of Dec without bringing two lecturers in one week—which we wish to avoid if possible.

  If you cannot come the 28th of Dec. will the 2d week in January either the 9th 10th 11th or 12th of the month suit you?—if not, perhaps you can select a day in the 4th week in Jany., avoiding Monday and Saturday.

  Write us as soon as possible and make the day as early as you can.—

Yours truly,

Andrew Whitney.
